Foonie Magus has officially launched Apeiron: Godling Genesis, its web3-based god game, on the Apple App Store and Google Play in select regions. Previously exclusive to PC players with high system requirements, the mobile release expands the game’s accessibility, reaching a wider audience. The initial rollout targets players in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, and Japan, with a broader release in major markets, including the United States, China, and Latin America, planned for 2025.

More About Apeiron

Apeiron is described as the world's first NFT-based god game running on the Ronin blockchain. It features a unique rogue-lite dungeon card-battler combined with god game simulation gameplay inspired by classic god games like Populous and Black & White.

Apeiron is being developed by a team of 60 Hong Kong developers with their prototype generating one of the largest single-game seed fundings in web3 from investors including Hashed, IVC, Morningstar Ventures, Spartan Group, and DeFiance. To date, Apeiron has raised $24 million, including a recent $13.5 million seed round.

Integrating Blockchain and UGC

Apeiron leverages blockchain technology to provide players with ownership and creative opportunities within the game. According to Frank Cheng, CEO of Foonie Magus, the integration of blockchain and user-generated content (UGC) adds a meta-game layer that deepens player engagement and expands the game’s universe.

“Our goal has always been to make Apeiron accessible to players worldwide,” Cheng stated. “With blockchain technology and UGC, Apeiron introduces a unique meta-game layer where players can own, create, and connect their in-game experiences.”

Currently, in its fourth season, which runs from December 4, 2024, to January 15, 2025, Apeiron offers players the chance to compete on PvP and PvE leaderboards. The season boasts significant rewards, including over 240,000 $APRS, 200,000 APRM, and more than 1 million Animus tokens.

Development and Future Plans

Apeiron is available for free download on mobile platforms and is also accessible on PC through the Mavis Hub and the Epic Games Store. The game continues to position itself as a notable addition to the world of web3 gaming with its innovative approach to blending traditional gameplay with blockchain elements.
